The Yang Wood Dragon (Jia Chen 甲辰)month begins on April 5 and ends on May 4, 2022. Dragon marks the last month of Spring and is a Yang Earth element with hidden stems of Yang Earth, Yin Wood, and Yin Water. The Dragon is the 5th of the 12 Chinese zodiac characters and is always associated with the West and the month of April. It is the most vital and powerful animal of the zodiac and also the only mythical animal. It is associated with world leaders, dominance, and ambition. Considering what’s happening on the world stage, it’s likely safe to say that world leaders will be holding our attention this month. The Wood and Water of the year are repeated in the hidden elements of Tiger, but the excess water and damp, immovable Earth can make the roots of the tree soggy and deter the growth of Wood. This could indicate a slowing/bogging down of the economy. Since Dragon doesn’t favor anyone specifically, there are no special assists this month. It’s a good time to learn the art of compromise and to play well with others.
Of note is the fact that for those born in the Autum (e.g., Putin) this is a less favorable month with money loss and feelings of being back-stabbed, which may result in violent temper and retaliation. For those born in the Winter (e.g., Zelenskyy this is a favorable month with Peach Blossom star. hmmmm…we shall see how this plays out.
If you have Dog in your BaZi chart, this is a clash month for you. There may be obstacles but also transformations. It depends on where in your four pillars this clash will be affected. If it’s in the year pillar, this can be some kind of change within your circle of friends and business associates. If it’s in your month, it can affect your work or parents. If it’s in your day pillar, it can affect your relationship with your spouse or a personal transformation. If in your hour pillar, it can affect your children or work output or creativity.
If you have Dragon in your chart, this is a Self Punishment/Penalty month for you. Combat it by disallowing the mean self-talk and self-sabotaging behavior.
Dragon is not a Nobleman, so it is a neutral month as far as providing special assistance or opportunities.
